Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: GEMINI_CREDENTIALS_PROFILE (Profile name in ~/.config/qmediat/credentials (chmod 0600). Created by `npx @qmediat.io/gemini-code-context-mcp init`. Recommended; keeps your API key out of ~/.claude.json), GEMINI_API_KEY (Fallback Tier 3 auth. Your Gemini API key. Emits a warning at startup recommending you move it to the credentials profile via the init command), GEMINI_USE_VERTEX (Set to `true` to use Vertex AI backend via Application Default Credentials. Requires GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT), GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT (GCP project ID when using Vertex AI backend. Only read when GEMINI_USE_VERTEX=true), GEMINI_DAILY_BUDGET_USD (Hard daily USD cap enforced locally. Server refuses calls after the cap until UTC midnight. Unlimited if unset. Honoured by `ask`, `code`, and per-iteration by `ask_agentic`), GEMINI_CODE_CONTEXT_DEFAULT_MODEL (Model alias (`latest-pro-thinking`, `latest-pro`, `latest-flash`, `latest-lite`, `latest-vision`) or literal model ID, read by ask, ask_agentic and code. Default: `latest-pro-thinking` (the thinking tier). code replaces a configured default that resolves but cannot reason or think with `latest-pro-thinking` and reports it as `configuredModelReplaced`; a default that does not resolve fails every tool), GEMINI_CODE_CONTEXT_CACHING_MODE (`implicit` (default since v1.14.0: the workspace text is sent inline, Gemini's automatic prefix cache decides any discount) or `explicit` (Files API upload + Context Cache with Google's cached-input price). Per-call `cachingMode` wins), GEMINI_CODE_CONTEXT_CACHE_TTL_SECONDS (Context Cache TTL in seconds in explicit caching mode. Default: 3600 (1 hour). Hot workspaces (<10 min since last use) auto-refresh via background watcher), GEMINI_CODE_CONTEXT_LOG_LEVEL (`debug` | `info` | `warn` | `error`. Default: `info`).

Gemini Code Context MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Gemini Code Context MCP?
Gemini Code Context MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @qmediat.io/gemini-code-context-mcp was installed 238 times last week.
How do I connect Gemini Code Context MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @qmediat.io/gemini-code-context-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Gemini Code Context MCP?
The npm package @qmediat.io/gemini-code-context-mcp was installed 238 times in the last week. Week over week that is -35%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Gemini Code Context MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
